Allen Jones's art is not everyone's cup of tea: fetishistic depictions of women as chairs, hat stands and mannequins strike some as profoundly anti-feminist. Others think it's the bee's knees. And it was fans, not detractors, who joined him at his private view at the Royal Academy. Grayson Perry, Lady Sarah Chatto and Zandra Rhodes joined models in sheer catsuits and no knickers to peruse the new display and raise a glass to the great divider.
